Check in check out was excellent. Room clean and warm. Overall a good stay. One issue. It was NYE. We were meeting other hotel guests in the bar before going elsewhere for dinner and to another venue for the NYE celebrations. Your bar staff were abrupt to the point of rudeness in telling us that we had to drink up and leave by 1700. Other patrons were unceremoniously herded out. As we were all guests, we objected and the bar manager slapped down paper coffee cups and ordered us to decant our drinks into them so they could wash our glasses for the evening. We refused and left once we had finished. The drinks are extortionately priced as though you are in London not Colchester. We should have been left alone to enjoy them. Your staff need better people skills. It left a bad impression.

Lovely decor - mix of old and modern - and a great vibe in the bar and lounge. Couldn’t be more central. Dinner in the restaurant was delicious and not madly priced. Our room was comfortable and well decorated. Shower was powerful. Slightly smelly drains, and having a room at the front on a Saturday night with single glazed windows meant we heard the delights of many couples rowing in the streets. Overall a great place at a reasonable price.
